Noga (Hebrew: נֹגַהּ‎‎, lit. Brightness) is a moshav in the Hevel Lakhish in south-central Israel. It belongs to the Lakhish Regional Council. It is located 5 or 6 km west of Kiryat Gat, and it can be reached via Route 352.

The moshav was founded in 1955 by immigrants to Israel from Iraq and Iran on part of the land of al-Faluja. The name "Noga" is symbolic of the brightness of Jewish Zionist settlement in Hevel Lakhish.
